The 1650s saw an anti-Calvinist onslaught in publications from scholarly folios to popular pamphlets, as part of a religious debate in Cromwellian England that significantly altered the doctrinal consensus of the Church of England for the remainder of the century. Part One of this book charts the rise of English Arminianism, highlighting a surprising rage of distinctly English Arminian doctrines. Part Two traces the detailed doctrinal formulations of two prominent divines - the puritan John Goodwin and the episcopalian Henry Hammond. Historians interested in the contested nature of 'Anglicanism' and theologians interested in Protestant debates regarding sovereignty and free will will find this book of great interest.
